Welcome to St. Joseph’s Children’s Centre
Our motto : " Shaping Hearts, Growing Characters."
Our primary objective is to foster a nurturing environment where every child feels safe, secure, and valued, enabling them to develop a robust sense of self and a strong sense of belonging. We achieve this by cultivating warm, respectful, and trustworthy relationships with both children and their families.
Within this supportive framework, children are encouraged to freely express their interests, needs, and unique strengths. Our dedicated team responds by meticulously observing, thoughtfully planning, and continuously reflecting upon our programs to ensure they are meaningful, engaging, and effectively scaffold children’s learning across all developmental domains.
The main work here is the Pre-School and other Sisters also participate in Pastoral Work at St Joseph’s Church and at the Sacred Heart Cathedral.

Our Aims and objectives
To further the interests and well-being of the children enrolled in our Centre and to inculcate in the child, a Christian disposition.
There is parents meeting, fundraising event and school outing in every term. Exception is made if there is a need.
What is special about our crèche is the fact that it is still a Christian based school and multiracial. The quality of education is high and make the work easy for the children in the future.
Parents work hand in hand with the staff by organizing different fundraising activities. To help the management to cover other needs of the Centre. e.g. Renovations and upgrading of the educational aids, etc. this is a slow process according to the needs of the Centre but it is working so far.
